Thread: NSX-R Seat Replicas...

  1. #1

    Default NSX-R Seat Replicas...

    business proposition - could a number of us very interested club together and buy these and then get a local business to replicate and then make available to others who may be interested in proper replicas?

    surely a no of owners would be interested in these seats ... i certainly am but dont have 12k plus vat to throw at seats ... bloody seats FFS Honda!

    Good idea but how about don't buy these seats, but use the seats in my NA2 R as the template that is on the ship on its way to the UK?

    IIRC, the actual seats are the same as your NA1 Type R - only the covers are different They are the same on my Type S, again, with a different cover stretched over the shell.

    You might want to check out Adnan's post for AS Motorsport on NSXPRIME. A cheaper alternative that's going to be produced by Recaro.

    We've managed to get these made by Recaro at a very attractive price, and that most certainly is a better idea than just blatantly copying a seat.

    I thought you were supplying Recaro Pole Position ABE seats and (blatantly )copying the Type-R design?

    I think there is too much work involved for a limited production run of the 'real' Type-R seat, they would end up costing way too much. Adnans' deal would be the more sensible option IMHO.

    If one where to specifically "need" a kevlar replica of a NSX-R seat, i can just order the DownForce replica's.

    just for clarification i was unaware of Adnan's new product line ... which is very interesting!!!

    apologies if this caused concern as i was not looking to detract business away ... we need suppliers like ASM etc
